Is a race God surely made mad.
For all of their wars are merry
And all of their loves are sad.

For every storm, a rainbow,
For every tear, a smile,
For every care, a promise,
And a blessing in each trial.
For every problem life sends,
A faithful friend to share,
For every sigh, a sweet song,
And an answer for each prayer.

And those that don’t love us,
May God turn their hearts.
And if he doesn’t turn their hearts,
May he turn their ankles,
So we’ll know them by their limping.

My comment:
this Irish drinking toast puts God in an awkward posture, doesn’t it?
